Google Docs would be great for this.

 

Thanks for the suggestion Pete! I imagine there is a way to upload a document on Google Docs so others can edit it?

[Schneiderfrei]

Or dropbox might be even more widespread.

[Futura]

Okay, I've finished the spreadsheet... now to try and figure out how to share it!

[Futura]

In case anyone is interested I do have the completed spreadsheet compiling all of the translations I could find on this forum. Unfortunately I do not have the time or know-how to upload it!

 

Please feel free to contact me if you'd like a copy or wish to edit it. Thanks!

[posaune]

it could be loaded on this site. If anyone wants to make an addition he/she save it again.
In Germany we have Vibinet: I think that could be an ideal place for this.

Maybe there is something like this in english?

I would be glad to receive your table.

Vibinet looks interesting!

 

I can't upload the file directly to this forum, unfortunately. I would be delighted to share a copy, though! Still working out how

 

In the meantime I can always email a copy to those who are interested.

Here is a link to a dropbox version of Futura's file:

 

Its in the form of an Excel spreadsheet.

Thank you for the spread sheet Futura and thank you Graham for putting it into dropbox.

[Mammothy]

Thanks a lot Graham and Futura. I'm browsing through it and try to figure out if I find something that I can't find. Ups. Well, understand please. I just watched a few episodes of George W. Trippon on youtube...

Durchmesse - diameter

 

Should be

 

Durchmesser - diameter

 

---------------------------------------------

 

Hosenkeil - crotch piece

Google tells me "trousers wedge"

https://goo.gl/images/3HUkD1

 

------------------------------------------

 

Kariet - checked

Kariert - Checkered

 

----------------------------------------

 

Mit nahtzugaben - wtih seams

Mit Nahtzugaben - with seam allowance

 

---------------------------------

Ohne Nahtzugaben - without seams

without seam allowance

 

--------------------------------

 

some more typos and errors are there, I need my beauty sleep, more maybe later.

 

I like the google docs better than dropbox, everyone (invited) can edit, and the owner can accept or reject edits.

 

BTW, here is a nice list of everything too. In reverse. https://www.stoffkon...-auf-englisch-/

[Schneiderfrei]

Hosenkeil = gusset

 

Capitals are so very important

 

I don't completely like Diameter for Durchmesser - rather Width since it works better that way when looking at the draft.  Thats probably just taste.

[Futura]

Thank you everyone for the corrections! I also have some amendments from posaune.

 

If there is a way others can access the file and edit it as well, please let me know. I tried to set up Dropbox but it caused problems with my browser. I couldn't find a way to set up editing through Google Docs. Hmmm, it must be obvious.

 

(Or I may just be completely behind on the times! )

Thanks for that

Brustabnäher is actually chest/ bust dart and not front dart (Taillenabnäher).

Bundfalte = pleat

Thanks - hopefully later this week I will have an updated version of the file available.

[Futura]

In case anyone has been waiting for the updated version, I haven't forgotten about it! I've gotten behind on my drafting studies (along with everything else) due to illness.

[Mammothy]

please upload it to google docs, and everyone invited can edit. (you can undo edits as you please)

I am also looking for some more mondane words, like high shank, low shank, and what all feet are called in both languages (I should know most of them, but sometimes I get confused).

No worries, I will see if I can figure out how to invite others - so please bear with me It would definitely be helpful for editing.

 

I may have some words like that! I just remembered I have a scanned PDF of the German version of my sewing machine's manual, which is quite in depth.
